In fact, in the final analysis, Li Er is still worried about burning dan.
The key point is that Datang cannot resume production of this thing now - it is only a matter of time before the formula spreads out, and Li Er knows that that day is impossible to avoid.
But Datang now has no oil and cannot resume production, but others are producing... Doesn't this mean that others have oil?
this……
This is hard to bear. Could it be that the Tang Dynasty actually doesn’t have any destiny? After all, when oil is discovered, according to Li Sheng’s description, it is also a kind of mineral deposit. Finding this thing also depends on luck... Then no
It's destiny.
Thinking of this, Li Er naturally felt heavier.
but……
Just when Li Er was feeling heavy, Wei Zheng noticed it and said what he just said.
These were all confidants, so Li Er naturally expressed his concerns.
after all……
He is different from Wei Zheng and others, he is the monarch.
And being the king of others means that you have to bear more negative things than others, and the risks are naturally the most negative.
However, after Li Er explained his worries to Wei Zheng, Wei Zheng and the others were stunned for a moment, and then they couldn't help but smile...
Li Er was unhappy at the sight of this smile and immediately frowned, "Why, what's so funny about this?"
"I said that the three of you are ministers in the same palace. Instead of sharing my worries, you are smiling playfully..."
"No, no, Your Majesty, Wei Chen didn't mean that!"
Wei Zheng said with a smile, and then suddenly mentioned something, "Your Majesty, you still remember that His Highness the First Prince once said that there are countless resources overseas..."
When Wei Zheng said this, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui both nodded, but Li Er still felt something was not right.
These overseas resources...
"But although there are these 'oil fields' overseas, they cannot be transported to China. Even if we have to use some means, I'm afraid it won't be easy... After all, we are so far apart, isn't it too difficult?"
After thinking about it, Li Er felt that these things were still too far away and of great significance, but it seemed that he couldn't expect them now?
But the smile on Wei Zheng’s face never diminished!
"Didn't Your Majesty forget that His Highness the First Prince said that we can't make money from other people's coal, iron ore, 'oil fields' and food for a while... But His Majesty must not forget that His Highness also said that we can first
Earn gold and silver."
"Earn gold and silver first..."
When Wei Zheng said this, Li Er was really stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly realized...
yes……
Since you can't earn money from oil fields, it's also a big benefit to earn gold and silver first...
But when I think about it, I still feel it’s wrong, because…
"But no matter how much gold and silver there is, what use are yellow and white things to the country?"
Li Er frowned, but did not show a satisfied look.
After all, he is the master of a country.
Gold and silver are good things to countless people.
But for the country, this thing is probably useless, right?
After all, gold and silver cannot be eaten, nor can they be worn, nor can they be used to make various utensils like coal, iron ore, and ‘oil’——
So why do you need this thing?
But at this time, Wei Zheng smiled slightly again, "Your Majesty... you have gold and silver, iron ore, coal, and 'oil fields', can't you just buy them..."
"this……"
As soon as Wei Zheng said these words, Li Er was stunned.
yes……
Be it oil fields or coal, these things cannot be obtained from Datang in a hurry. You can only earn gold and silver first.
However, with gold and silver... these are real precious metals, something that is popular all over the world and is loved by the world.
Wouldn't it be enough to buy those things after you've earned gold and silver?
After all, gold and silver cannot be counted as resources, but gold and silver can be purchased?...
this……
Thinking of this, Li Er's mood instantly became beautiful, and his face burst into laughter. He couldn't help but laugh and curse, "You guys have more clever ideas! Hahaha!"
However, Li Er laughed and scolded Li Er, but Wei Zheng and others couldn't help but sigh.
after all……
"Sigh... Speaking of which, His Highness came up with this strategy of 'earning gold and silver first'. I can't wait to pick up people's wisdom, I feel so ashamed!"
Li Er couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and instantly understood the meaning of Wei Zheng's words.
Yes...
Just think about it, you should think of it.
Li Sheng had clearly considered the problem he was worried about just now, so he came up with a way to earn gold and silver first...
Gather the gold and silver in the world and then buy resources. Wouldn't this be a success?
Come to think of it, it's really...
Li Er was suddenly enlightened!
When I suddenly became enlightened, I couldn't help but sigh, this kid Li Sheng is really, really...
Outrageous!
Li Li is on the original spectrum, Li is on the big spectrum!
This talent is unmatched by anyone in the world!
…
Li Er finally returned to Chang'an with Li Sheng's intelligence and plans!
Then a series of deployments naturally began.
In the past, the matter of "attracting investment" was relatively low-key, but now Li Er decided to speed up the pace and mobilize more wealthy households to go overseas for sea trade.
If not for anything else, first bring me all the gold and silver from overseas to the Tang Dynasty!
A whole ship's worth of coal is not worth much money, and coal that is not worth much money naturally cannot make much money. No one is doing it, so what about gold and silver?
Get him the precious metals first, and then...
Aren’t those resources such as coal and iron ore still belonging to the Tang Dynasty?
When I think about it, Li Er, Wei Zheng and other ministers are all very motivated.
However, this matter has caused a lot of discussion among ordinary officials.
After all, every dynasty has been focusing on agriculture since ancient times. Is it a little bit that Li Er is now engaged in business...
Almost everyone, except Wei Zheng and his group, as well as ordinary officials, whether they were entering the imperial court through the imperial examination, new drivers who had just come up, or officials from aristocratic families, felt very puzzled.
But for these ordinary officials, no one can beat Li Er and his group anyway, so why do they still want to do so much and have nothing? Just do it...
But Wang Jing, Li Tiancheng, Cui Baihe, Pei Ji...
The views of this group of people are different!
Because the members of the aristocratic family who are officials in the court are not the leaders - if they were the leaders, how could Li Er keep these people in the court.
As the heads of the wealthy family behind them, Wang Jing and the others considered the problem not that simple.
Li Er takes action to attract investment?
And it comes with a lot of preferential conditions...
On the one hand, many categories of trade goods are tax-free to a certain extent!
This is unprecedented. The imperial court would actually reduce taxes for businessmen...
This is simply incredible.
Of course, there are still some that are not tax-free, or that are simply prohibited - it is prohibited to sell food outside.
But other than that, it can be said that Li Er is really kind and righteous to the businessmen...
Even businessmen who export spices and porcelain are not only given tax exemptions, but even paid subsidies!
